Interesting as always! Do you think scientifically rational types tend to have difficulty in abstract concepts? I tend to believe that they may. I think it takes an abstract thinker to believe in things they cannot see. If a person views the world in more concrete ways, it would seem that that they would tend to be more inclined to struggle with abstract concepts. In other words, I believe that faith requires a creative mind. Creativity fosters higher levels of intelligence. Science would be stagnant without creativity.
Great points. I think they can be just as abstract and creative, but are more likely to rigorously filter their subjective insights through the thinking functions before deciding whether or not to become a "believer". Just my opinion. Hope you're well, rmb.
I agree. Sometimes people spend much of their time filtering and miss the big picture. Sometimes people are too intelligent and rigid for their own good. They tend to stifle their development. In other words, some people stumble over their big brains. 😆
Yes, agreed, and also, you mentioned that at first glance there appear to be many contradictions and inconsistencies. If you do a deep dive, there are hundreds more. The number of direct contradictions and inconsistencies in the bible alone has been counted at 194, a devastating amount of errata for "people of the Book". I'm convinced that Dr. Bart Ehrman is an xNTJ.
I’m an INFP who’s agnostic and I have always been like that. I had the choice to get baptised when I was a teenager but I refused because I could not identify myself with the religion. All my cousins did get baptised
I think yes, we NT are more prone to be agnostic or atheist. For ENTP INTJ not so much, cause N dom and F 3rd - We can loop NF and ignore the T Probably more difficult for T dom ENTJ INTP - Loop TS, ignoring N Maybe NF functions help us to perceive & feel God ? I was agnostic, until I start to see signs & synchronicity at the end of 2021 & start to meditate. Now, after some thinking : My belief is God is the light, is in ourselves, inside, in each essence, consciousness or soul, everywhere in each living being, the life, is what makes us alive, is energy, is vibrations of the reality, is intention, love, intuition, which creates, the universe. Believe in God is believing in ourselves. We are Energies/magnets who attract and repulse different people/things/informations. We are 1 life split/fragmented in many consciousness in order to survive. (Universe : only one version, one life) We are creators. Love creates. We are Love at the essence. Few months ago, I saw the video of an INFJ explaining God could be the black hole. [Oops I think I was inspired to write, just my perception] 😅 Everyone could believe in God if they meditate.
Truth is stranger than fiction and those that cannot believe in God cannot come up with anything that explains sufficiently why we became conscious on this little lava filled rock hurtling through infinite space with no other signs of life
God exists, the Universe it self is God, all the planets, stars, black holes, creatures, etc are all a part of God. God is everything and everything is God. However, what I am not sure is, if maltiverse exists then our universe is possibly but one cell of God, in which case God is the multiverse. I think we are all a part of something much bigger than anyone could possibly comprehend. Do I know if I am correct of not, no, not at all. No one truly knows what God really and truly is, but whether or not God really exists or not, we all have our own beliefs and I will never take that away from anyone.
Very logical reasoning Mr. Fritts. There's plenty of evidence. I hightly suggest everyone watches the documentary; "The Ark and the Darkness" - available on DVD and streaming. =) I'm glad ENTJ Kari Lake believes in God. What an inspiration she is! ^u^

@@DuelingPersonalities yeah, i agree with your point of filtering out.
amen and amen!
I agree. Sometimes people spend much of their time filtering and miss the big picture. Sometimes people are too intelligent and rigid for their own good. They tend to stifle their development. In other words, some people stumble over their big brains. 😆
I've noticed that if entps and intjs are Christians that they tend to be big into apologetics and debating different denominations too
That is a very advanced pattern you have noticed. I did not ever consider that before but it makes perfect sense. Hope you're well, PR
@@DuelingPersonalities yup.
I agree with you! They have to make sense out of it on their own.
Facts. Especially INTJ. Soooo many of them are hard headed atheists, not willing to look at the mountains of evidence pointing towards an afterlife

God as a black hole! Wow! Very interesting. Thanks for your comment, Elodie. Hope all is well.

Thanks, GTS. 🙏
@@DuelingPersonalities Don't mention it. :) 🙏 Heart appreciated. ^u^
I test INTJ 100% of the time. I lean towards science - whichis how I found God. I do not understand people who cannot see God.
Hi miss bea loves Albert. I hope you are well
I don't believe in God. I NOW GOD IS REAL. BY CARL JUNG
That’s a great Carl Jung quote
